The ramblings of a discombobulated mind
.. of the stalker kind.
It is interesting to me what makes people tick. It is also interesting to me what goes through peoples minds sometimes.
Let me explain…and whilst I do I am aware that some of you reading this might consider this a good thing and others will think of me as an arsehole….you are [...]
I was talking today to a guy at work and we were discussing the finer virtues of my Starbucks Venti Cappuccino with 2 extra espresso shots. He said I should have asked for a Venti espresso and gone for it, which triggered a TV-Show style flashback to when I was working in Cardiff.
I believe I [...]
So, whilst SPs decline from the dizzy heights of casanovadom continues at a rapid rate of knots….he does still have his moments.
This report was submitted to LW headquarters by our roving field reporter GF.
The location: Daves living room (AKA the Anglo Irish)
Those present: SP, GF and a random American Marine
Details are sketchy as to how [...]
On my most recent “White Van Man Excursion” I was a little early again for my train, but was hungry and thirsty and decided to stop at the Eurotunnel terminal for a bite to eat. Whilst outside sucking down a “Fatal Friend” I noticed this sign.
Now, ok, it is easy to laugh at a foreign [...]
Tags: faux pas, random, wtfOk, I will admit that I got the idea for this post from another blog….I don’t remember the blog, just that they did a post about ouija boards when they were a kid.
This reminded me about the time at school when our R.E. Teacher (Religious Eductation) decided to cave to the constant questioning from us [...]
I was sorting my photos out on the PC the other night, when I stumbled across these 2:
They reminded me of many moons ago, when I was into Paintball in a big way. The pictures you see were from Airsoft, a different kind of game, but more of that later.
I played paintball regularly and had [...]
Is it bad when your boss starts sending emails that end with things like “Ask them to change it, but try and be nice”?
Sure, I can argue and I can do it pretty well. At work I can get quite aggressive, which is in direct contrast to what a soft cuddly teddy bear I am [...]
My name is Dave, and I am a nicotineoholic. It has been 5 minutes since my last cigarette and it is difficult.
Ok, so it isn’t quite that bad, yet, but I have my moments. Anyone that has smoked will more than likely know that when you drink alcohol, you smoke more. Oh, and when I [...]
I don’t know why I haven’t written about this before, especially as it was such a big part of my life for a long time. Now, I have to warn you, some of this post will be deeply geeky. So to that end (and for our American friends):
Those of you with a “jock” [...]
So there is a school of thought that American guys are nuts….and possibly a little gullible. Now, I can only speak from experience and conclude that they are generally no more so than any other guys.
That said, there is a particular group that have been known to frequent my living room from time to [...]
To quote Billy Connolly….. Jesussufferingfuck
Everytime I look around the apartment and think.. “Just another hour or so”, I discover something else that has been bloody forgotten.
Still, it would appear that I have been blessed by <INSERT DIETY OF PREFERENCE HERE>, as my friends are pretty bloody amazing. Let’s recap my last few days:
Friday:
Work as normal [...]
Tags: apartment, faux pas, friends, germanyA while ago I used to run LAN parties (I mentioned my general geekiness before right?), they started off with about 9 people taking over my house for the weekend, and ended up with some decent numbers and some excellent prize giveaways. It was fun, bloody hard work, but fun.
So anyway, we were running [...]
Ok, so after the break up I have been somewhat of a procrastinator - I haven’t quite packed as much as I had planned, nor have I started redecorating for the new tenant after I leave.
I have found time to blog recently, but seeing as I do that on my 2nd monitor whilst watching TV [...]
I am a bit busy tonight, so just a quick one.
The genius of living in a foreign country, is the products…. Clearly the marketing people decided that this would not be shipped to any country where English is the native language.
Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you….
If you click the picture, you may well notice [...]
Tags: faux pas, germany, products, random, wtfI had to post, I don’t feel even remotely that I am an expert in the art of what looks good on a woman, my usual response to “What do you think of this <insert random item of clothing>?” is :
“Throw it on the floor and if it looks good there, take it”
Anyway - Even [...]
